SOHO/LASCO observed an asymmetric HALO CME on March 04, 2014.  Event is
first seen in C2 beginning 18:48 UT with a loop over the North Pole.
The event expands with extensions to a full HALO by 19:24 UT. The
event continues into the C3 field beginning 19:16-00:42 UT leaving
the C3 field at 30Rsun in the North.

Time/height measurements were marked at 2 points in C2 with speeds of
1767.4 Km/sec at PA 345 degrees. The event is marked to 7 points in C3. 
Speeds average through both fields to 1108.6 Km/sec at PA 345 degrees.
Acceleration -72.00 m/sec^2.

SDO/AIA 193A shows a wave of material and dimming across the limb
in the North polar region 18:36-19:33 UT.

STEREO: BEACON data
COR2 A,  13:54-24:55 UT data gap.
